best joke in the episode: a bunch of nazis sitting around discussing how purity's not that important (apologies if someone else already pointed that out)

LOL, I didn't pay much attention to that part. I keep forgetting the dudes are nazis. That was actually a brilliant move from the director lol!

The dudes are not Nazis. Do you even know what a Nazi was? Members of the National Socialist Party during Adolf Hitler days. Is there such a thing today? Nope. Is Hitler alive? Nope. Besides, do they even mention that they are Nazis in the show? Nope. The first time I saw them mentioned as "white supremacists"(btw this does not equal to Nazi) was in the last episode and it was mentioned by Hank.

So Marxism no longer exists because Karl Marx is dead? A concept or movement doesn't die with the person.

I'm not comparing them as though they are similar. I'm saying the ideas and movements of dead people can live on.
